Seduction Spacer Underwire T-shirt Bra (853255)
This bra was super uncomfortable at first. It was tight in the band on the longest length, the center gore pressed in more than was comfortable and the underwire poked me in the armpits. NOW after giving it some time to break in and after a few washes (machine wash cold, air dry), it is very comfortable! Its a great every day bra. I'm a stay at home mom to a 2 year old boy so I do a lot of running, bending and jumping throughout my day. I hardly notice that I even have a bra on. My only complaint it that the straps tend to fall off my shoulders by the end of the day, but after all the stress I put on it I can't fault it for getting a bit tired!

Retro Chic Full Figure Underwire Bra (855186)
I received this and a white version on Reddit's RandomActsOfBras, so both are gently used. As such, band measurements might be a bit off, although neither seems heavily used to me.
Talk about full coverage! this bra comes very high up, it shows under anything that doesn't end at my neck. This is probably great for ladies that need more coverage, and its great for not having a top seam under tight shirts, but its just too much for me. I feel like im wearing a very sexy vest =P its also too large in the cup for me slightly, right at the front of the cup it ... wrinkles. I think it probably needs someone with more projection than me, perhaps more full breasts in general.
Even so, this is a very comfy bra. Nothing digs and i feel supported. The shape is decidedly "retro", another no for me. It doesn't go into crazy pointy territory, but its very close to my naked shape, and just not something i'm comfortable with. part of this probably has to do with it being too deep; i think id get a rounder shape with less depth. The gore doesn't sit flush at the very top, but does everywhere else, which confuses me but doesn't cause any discomfort. The band has 3 hooks, feels snug without being awful, and didnt ride up on me at all.
Note: this has a very curved band. i took some pictures both clasped and undone to show, i dont know how that affects fit but its worth mentioning.
Looks wise, this is very classic black lace and cream mesh. There's a small bow and flower gem on the gore, very cute, and the band fabric has little dots (harder to see on the black bra). I'll be passing these on via Reddit, sad to see them go!

Retro Chic Full Figure Underwire Bra (855186)
I received this and a black version on Reddit's RandomActsOfBras, so both are gently used. As such, band measurements might be a bit off, although neither seems heavily used to me.
All fit details of this are the same as the black. The only small difference is that one hook on this has been slightly bent out of shape, not enough to affect use but it is visible if you look for it. the band on this is a hair tighter than the black, its probably been less used.
As it also doesnt fit, I'll be passing it on via Reddit, sad to see them go!This bra is not owned any more

Romantic Notion Full Figure Wire (855120)
This is one of those bras that should fit me, looks like it fits me, and probably does in fact fit me, but I still don't like how it feels on.
I don't like the feel of the fabric, even though it is pretty. It's a very attractive bra.
I think unlined bras are less likely to be soft, unless the material is too stretchy to support, and that's one reason I don't like unlined bras, aside from modesty issues.
It's not as stiff as some bras I've tried to wear. But I still think it would be better for someone else than me.Updated on Jan 10, 2014 Flag this

Embrace Lace Underwire (65191)
Beautiful bra! I got the cappucino/mocha color combo. Prettiest bra I've ever had. Band seems tight for a 34, which is good since I'm really a 30 or 32. The cups wrinkle a little, but mostly on my smaller boob which can't really be helped. Very comfy fit, except the lace on the band itches a little. Kind of torn on the headlights issue, maybe I will return this one and get a molded bra instead.

Seduction Spacer Underwire T-shirt Bra (853255)
The top edge is slightly elastic and a little tighter than the material of the cup, so it looks a little like the cup's ballooning out along the edge. There's a soft mesh lining/sling thing inside the cup that curves along the outside of the cup, covering the outside of my breast and stopping right next to my nipple. Not really sure what it's for, but it's not uncomfortable or intrusive.
Fits like a dream, although the puckering points the straps a little further down my shoulders than I'd like.Updated on Apr 17, 2013 Flag this

Reveal Contour Bra (853115)
When I first put it on I fill out the cup (with my larger boob), but the tissue tends to settle away from the top of the cup and I notice a small gap unless I keep scooping/swooping throughout the course of the day. The molded cup kind of slopes up from the band, so it's subtly conical, and peaks just about level with my armpit. The band stays put, and the wings and band are wide enough so that there's no visible pinching or cupping. The color and lace detailing is super cute.

It was a great bra super cut with the lace. Cup is a little small and the seams show through on a t shirt.

Reveal Underwire Bra (855115)
This bra does a great job of hoisting everything upwards and is comfortable - however, the quadraboob and side spillage is massive. I will be buying this bra several cups sizes larger.

Opulence Contour Underwire Bra (853112)
This bra is very pretty, with the touch of lace, yet still look OK under a t-shirt. The cup is a little small for me though, I don't quite get quad-boob, but it feels like the cup doesn't fit quite like it should. It fits well enough that I wear it regularly, but I'd love to try it up a cup size if I could find it. It's very comfortable and still pretty.

Embrace Lace Underwire (65191)
This bra give amazing lift! The undersides of my boobs are like pointing upwards and it's awesome. However, this bra seems to have stretched out alot and doesn't fit as well as it used to. It's made of very un-stretchy material, so I think that's what gives it support, but the band now needs to be on the tightest hook to do it. Also the completely non-stretchy straps have been hurting me when I wear it all day.

What do you mean "real" vs "fake"?
-
The real one i bought for $80.oo at Hudson's Bay. The fake one i bought from ebay, for $25.00. When i received the fake one by mail the packaging was not the original but in a bag. It May be you could say they just got rid of excess packaging for shipping weight. The bra's are very similar but visibly i could see that the fake was different which prompted me to compare the two. What more could I expect at that price. Upon comparing them the fabric is so very different especially the feeling of it. In fact it was the feeling of The fake's fabric that raised red flags. It is more plasticy then the real, not that the real isn't made out of synthetic material, but the real is much softer, very soft. Also the real has more give which is why they do not have to let out the fabric as much as the fake. even when comparing the cups the fabric is more pendulous on fake. probably because their fabric wouldn't expand to the correct size and had to let out more fabric to accommodate the breast. the sides of the fabric just off the wire is where i see the difference, the real lets boob to the sides and molds to the boob, whereas the fake, it's bad enough there is no give in the fabric and they let out the tip to make a pendulous look, but the fabric surrounding the wire where it already doesn't have any give is tight. It's really laughable how much the fake may try to be like the real But it just isn't if you have a good eye. I really feel bad about people who might not have experienced the original and try the fake. The fabric is what i love about the original. sending back the fake will just be a hassle because i'm from Canada so i reserve the fake for rough work that i do. Now This goes to prove the old adage: "You get what you pay for." Which i am not one of those people who gets away with quality for cheap but love quality and am willing to pay i could have put this money toward a new one i am happy i have had a learning experience in the beginning of my bra quest.

also the tops of the cups on the fake where the strap is attached is not even symmetrical one starts higher, closer to the shoulder then the other breast. So this means that there is an excess of fabric and their pattern has started off wrong to make it lop sided so everything about it after that is wrong. the illegal makers don't have inspections, not a big surprise there.

What I want is everything this bra gives, the band is wide with 3 hooks, the underwire follows my root and ends where my root does, I could cry for this fact after being told so long I was a size 38-A, this bra does not cut into my boob at both ends of the wire! The centre gore sits flush n follows the breast. It contains the underarm fat!!! Which I always thought was me being fat because the A-cup had always pushed it out, but it's actually boob!!! Yes I agree that the fabric of cup does extend high on my chest, now I have to explain to you, sigh* it never ends, another common aspect of my shape is that breasts sit high on chest I'm going to say not the most common as I have experienced in my futile bra shopping. I'm sure on a bra website someone might say that, "it is not uncommon" and I am happy for that. But as I'm having to explain my stance in this bra with my breast shape with my correct size!!! I am so very surprised it is true to size. Which is again uncommon for my breast shape I haven't mastered the going up in down is sizes maybe another time. but a full coverage bra is what I wanted. There is no excess loose fabric" so the breast does fill the cup it's a full coverage bra. everything of bra fits except the visual which I said does not matter to me. It may not please you but I hope people know the wonders of this bra. The seams of bra do not show through any shirt except I cannot wear a deep v neck which I don't anyway but try to cover up as much skin as I can hence the full coverage bra desired. And this next fact "THE FABRIC IS NOT LOOSE BUT TIGHT TO CHEST" I put caps so someone in my breast shape might not miss this part. no matter how I move, even if I crunch down the fabric hugs me. And remember for my breast shape many bras fall-short in this area. I am happy with this bra. As this is the beginning of my bra quest with limited time to research which is necessary for my breast shape. the little research I have done the photos of the bras were, compared to the full coverage I have grown accustomed with in this bra, were lacking fabric and coverage. This bra in the photos is the real bra that I like I should take a picture of the fake because the fake bra the cups is empty and because the fabric on the fake is not as stretchy as the real there is just loose fabric on the chest and folds. Also I should say the straps are at full shortening but it is all I need. If this post did not make sense and was jumbled I did not review it as I've grown tired of this. I will review it another time. I hope it helps my fellow breast shape or older women who might like a full coverage bra.

Wearing pretty bras isn't "slaving for men." Not caring what your bra looks like doesn't make you better than anyone. You're probably joking or trolling but just in case you're not, that ego stroking comment is irrelevant to the review and it's insulting. Following an insult immediately with "sorry if it's annoying" is not something genuinely sorry people do. If annoying is exactly what you were going for though, then you succeeded beautifully.
